Recently I was chatting to a friend that I was helping. He was in my office and we sat and chatted about the current problem. I am a voice coach and do it for free. I have helped hundreds of guys get a deeper voice and I enjoy it. But Allan put it so succinctly, I had to share it with you here.

Allan was flipping burgers at the local franchise while completing his studies. His experience is very common for a guy with a high pitched voice. The way Allan put it, he was “tolerated” by others. He often woke in the mornings with a reasonable voice timber, not Barry White, but at least a good sounding Barry Manillow. But by 10 am he was sounding like “Screech”.

He was relaying all this to me as his voice was indeed changing and showing variations that really had no relevance to the meaning he was communicating. I found I had to consciously filter out his meaning for him and decipher, what he was actually saying and what his involuntary voice inflections were doing.

This is part of the problem. Poor communications. However the worst part is the assessments of others. Making the voice deeper improves your odds in so many ways. It is the one thing you can do about your self that will have the most dramatic long term impact. From women to job prospects, from business dealings, to important life challenges. A deeper voice seems to just tip the odds your way. This is what Allan was talking about. He was tired of just being tolerated. I didn’t blame him one bit.

It is amazing how quickly people not only trust you but seemingly warm to you when your voice timber is deep and crisp. There is a biological reason for this, and I believe the answer can be found in genetic programing. When we were babies, we all responded to voice depth. To our tiny baby inner ear, even mom’s feminine voice sounded deep. Being reliant babies, we were soothed and re-assured by voice depth.

This part of our brain, the subconscious is still active and with us. It plays a role in our lives to this day. When we go to the bank manager for a home loan, or when we go for a job interview, or when we have business dealings with possible business partners. A deep crisp voice develops immediate trust.

The person making assessments about you will consider the first impression. In other words, the way you look. This lasts exactly 5 seconds until you open your mouth. You can look immaculate, but if you sound terrible, you will reverse any good your looks won for you. Conversely, if you turned up in jeans and a stained t-shirt, but your voice was deep crisp and the timber was strong, the jeans and t-shirt will matter for probably under 10 seconds until you begin to speak. People will make all sorts of excuses for you in their minds and justify anything they dont like, if your voice timber makes them feel re-assured.

It is a biological reaction, that people cannot help. This immediate calming and pacification gives people the strength to trust, simply because of your voice.

When you get a deeper voice, strange worlds open up. Often it is very frustrating for millions of American men, who suffer this affliction, to have a squeaky or high pitched voice. This is not a permanent thing, because most sufferers report, that often in the mornings, they do get a nice timber and resonance. However as the day wears on, the squeakiness and embarrassingly high pitch returns.

The key to a crisp deep voice and the credibility you get from possessing the power to sound like that is consistency. A permanent deep crisp voice is what most men want. It is little consolation for most men with this problem that their voice is comfortably deep and commanding in the mornings or the occasional morning. In fact, most of the positives and credibility you are ascribed by others is completely wiped out and neutralized after a few squeaky sentences.

People simply seem to warm to a man with a deep crisp voice. There is a tendency to trust easily and the voices sound confirms that trust with every syllable. Conversely, a man with a squeaky or inconsistent voice suffers the judgment and assessment of others as being weak, or even untrustworthy.

This plays a big role when applying for jobs or applying for a bank loan for a house. Business dealings run smoother and in your way when your voice is deep crisp and smooth. Getting a deep voice is crucial for most men. There are many avenues that can be taken, from singing lessons to speech therapy, however they all take quite a while… years of commitment and dutiful practice to achieve satisfactory results.
